Southern Weddings

From the Southeast's preeminent wedding designer, Tara Gu rard, comes Southern Weddings: New Looks from the Old South. This unique new book puts readers on the most coveted guest lists to the most spectacular events, and goes behind the scenes for an insider's look at how these glamorous affairs come to be.

Southern Weddings showcases 10 splendid weddings, and shares the tools-and tricks-of the trade Tara has learned from over a decade of working in the event world. Each of the weddings featured in the book are beautiful, yet markedly different from one another-from a seaside soir e to country club chic to rustic plantation. Each section is peppered with behind-the-scenes shots of Tara and her crew as they work their magic. With secrets, tips and advice galore, practical how-tos and easy-to-digest text paired with stunning photography, Southern Weddings is destined to become the classic resource for brides who wish to capture the entertaining traditions of the Old South with a decidedly modern flair.
